A big thanks again to @NSF! And to the parent who drove all the way to Virginia to get the glasses (on the left) and the principal @MrsStrain who helped make it all happen (on the right!) Y'all made our kids #SolarEclipse2024 experience so much fun & educational #NSFEclipse /fin

The kids had an absolute BLAST. And so did their parents, siblings, grandparents, and neighbors! It turned into a big community viewing party. If you turn on the sounds you can hear the kids chanting, "Solar eclipse! Solar eclipse!" It was completely unprompted! /6

Enter the @NSF. The PTA president reached out and within just an hour we had a promise of enough glasses for everyone. A parent drove out to Alexandria and by mid-morning the plan was back on! Families were invited to join their kids and we even had glasses for them! /5
Just a few of the eclipse glasses that NSF gave us!

This way they could talk about viewing safety in classrooms, do some eclipse science activities, hand out glasses, and then go outside to view it. Then when they dismiss, the kids would have training and the glasses so they'd stay safe /3
One of the eclipse activities they did today. My kid is holding a paper mobile of an earth, moon, and sun that can be used to illustrate their relationships.
